    MortgageMamma, do you currently digitally sign your emails in some way? Other documents?

    One of the easiest ways might be to sell your network on the idea of eliminating options for consumer or adviser document changing and have them implement it in whatever document generation system they have, if any.

    I can't tell you about pricing for the Verisign product - I've never investigated purchasing it.

    I would if I understood/knew enough about it. Unfortunately. I'm good with mortgage software but my IT skills and awareness in general are not great. I suppose I could challenge myself to learn a little more or just ask questions in the right direction at the network

    Its interesting you should bring this up as my ex employer recently edited an email I sent to someone and faxed it to my husband to cause me trouble at home! I wont go into details but it wasnt nice and it took a while to convince him it had been edited :(

  • darnell associates quoted me £858 for cemap 1 course and exam(4 days)

    £454 each for cemap 2 and 3(2 days each)

    apparently this includes a clause where even if i fail i can do them again at no cost...

    darnell = cemap 1 £838
    Cemap 2 - £454 + CeMAP 3 - £454 = £908
    Total = £1746

    Money Marketing Limited £495 x 2 = £990
    IFS 3 x £130 = £390
    Total = £1480


    Will you fail???

  • Why do they put questions in the CeMaps - namely CeMap 2 - that were in last year's syllabus but that have been removed?

    I daren't write to the FSA - yet - not until I have passed my CeMap 1, in case they stop me from passing.

    Will write more later, have a hospital appointment
